Answer:
The mother has to sit 2.17 ft from the center on the other side of the seesaw.
Explanation:
We are trying to find the sum of torques given by the weights of mother and daughter to be zero.
If the torque of the daughter on one side of the pivoting point is given by:
5.5 ft x 63.5 lb x g = 349.25 g ft lb
we need that the absolute value of the torque exerted by the mom (160.9 lb) to be the same in magnitude (and of course opposite direction). So we assume that "d" is the distance at which the mother locates to make this torque equal in magnitude to her daughter's torque:
d x 160.9 lb x g = 349.25 g ft lb
d = 2.17 ft
<span>A mountain is a type of constructive force. This is because the mountains are formed (or "constructed") through the convergence of land plates. When the two (or more) plates come together, they cause the land at the fault line to shift upward, leading to the formation of mountains.</span>
Answer:
it's because some versions have more steps and others have less
Correct order, from lowest potential energy to highest potential energy:
E - C - D - B - A
Explanation:
The gravitational potential energy of the car is given by:

where
m is the car's mass
g is the gravitational acceleration
h is the height of the car relative to the ground
In the formula, we see that m and g are constant, so the potential energy of the car depends only on its height above the ground, h. The higher the car from the ground, the larger its potential energy. Therefore, the position with least potential energy will be E, since the height is the minimum. Then, C will have more potential energy, because the car is at higher position, and so on: the position with greatest potential energy is A, because the height of the car is maximum.
Answer:
v = 3.84 m/s
Explanation:
In order for the riders to stay pinned against the inside of the drum the frictional force on them must be equal to the centripetal force:

where,
v = minimum speed = ?
g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²
r = radius = 10 m
μ = coefficient of friction = 0.15
Therefore,

<u>v = 3.84 m/s</u>
